A credible leaker named hxg_diluc has provided more details about the potential release date of Mavuika. According to the leaker, the new Pyro Archon is expected to join the roster during Genshin Impact update 5.3, which should drop in the first half of January. At the moment, there is not much official information about Mavuika other than that she made her first appearance during the promo video titled "Ignition Teaser: A Name Forged in Flames." As previously rumored, Mavuika has a tall female character model, dressed in a sleek black outfit that contrasts strikingly with her red hair, accented with yellow and orange highlights. She can also be seen wearing a pair of unique glasses, which will likely be featured in her kit.

Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Mavuika's Potential Release Date

While Mavuika's storyline is still unknown, the Natlan teasers hinted that she will conflict with one of the Harbingers, Il Capitano. The Eleven Fatui Harbingers are extremely powerful individuals who work for the Cryo Archon Tsaritsa and the Fatui, one of the main antagonist factions in Genshin Impact. Capitano, also known as The Captain, was revealed to be the First Fatui Harbinger, indicating that he could be one of the most powerful characters in Genshin Impact.

However, Natlan is also known as the home of the God of War, and it produced many notable fighters, including the legendary gladiator Vennessa, who overthrew the Mondstadt aristocracy. This is why many fans expect Mavuika to be the most powerful Genshin Impact Archon so far.

When it comes to her power on the field, there is still no official information or credible leaks. With the introduction of new Pyro characters, this element could take over the current Genshin Impact meta. Like all the other Archons, Mavuika is expected to be a flexible character who can fit into many different team compositions in Genshin Impact.
